The Johnson family is truly a generous and kind family. They opened their home with open arms to anyone who needed a place to stay and never judged anyone. This shows what a fine leader and father Chuck was. I feel so blessed to have had them in my life when I really needed guidance and love and that is what Chuck and Joan provided for me and my brother. Corinne, thank you for sharing your family with us. I am so so sorry for your loss. We will be praying for you all at this very difficult time. Love you all
